Disgraced MP Keith Vaz plots Commons comeback less than two months after being filmed with rent boys
No colleagues have opposed his bid to join the justice committee, despite fact he faces investigations from police and Commons sleaze watchdog
SHAMELESS Keith Vaz is plotting a Commons comeback less than two months after being filmed with rent boys.
The MP has put himself forward to represent Labour on the Commons justice committee.
No colleagues have opposed him, despite the fact he quit as boss of the Home Affairs panel in September and faces investigations from both police and Commons sleaze watchdogs.
Explosive undercover footage revealed this summer showed married Mr Vaz, 59, with two Eastern European gay escorts at north-west London.
The newspaper sting also caught him offering to buy one of the Romanians cocaine.
Last night Tory MP Andrew Bridgen told MailOnline: “Keith Vaz’s guile knows no bounds.
“Joining the Justice committee is particularly interesting when Scotland Yard has still not ruled out investigating him on conspiracy to supply a controlled substance.”
He hit out: “Obviously he still has the full support of the Labour party otherwise he wouldn’t be standing unopposed.”
